Are There Really Syntactic Complexity Effects in Sentence Production? A Reply to Scontras et al. (2015)
SBSLF argue that “structures with non-local dependencies like the object-extraction in (1b) may be more costly to produce because one of the dependencies initiated by the pronoun ‘who’ needs to be maintained in memory while the intervening material (‘the senator’ in [1b]) is being uttered” (p. 562). This quote, plus the article title—“Syntactic complexity effects in sentence production”—invites...
متن کاملSyntactic Complexity Effects in Sentence Production
Syntactic complexity effects have been investigated extensively with respect to comprehension (e.g., Demberg & Keller, 2008; Gibson, 1998, 2000; Gordon et al., 2001, 2004; Grodner & Gibson, 2005; King & Just, 1991; Lewis & Vasishth, 2005; Lewis et al., 2006; McElree et al., 2003; Wanner & Maratsos, 1978). According to one prominent class of accounts (experience-based accounts; e.g., Hale, 2001;...
متن کاملSyntactic facilitation in agrammatic sentence production.
Recently, proposals have been made to relate processing difficulties in aphasic language performance to limitations in resources for grammatical processing (Carpenter et al., 1994; Hagiwara, 1995; Kolk, 1995; Martin & Romani, 1994). Such proposals may account for a defining characteristic of agrammatic sentence production: reduced syntactic complexity. Syntactic structures that require deep hie...
متن کاملA reply to Barrett (2016).
Barrett [1] makes three observations relevant to IIT 3.0 as discussed by Tononi & Koch [2]. Firstly, for many systems, F—as outlined in IIT 3.0—may not be computable as it may never be practical to carry out all possible discrete grainings in space, time and relevant functional elements and maximize over these. Of course, as Barrett himself points out, the fact that something may not be computa...
متن کاملNeural Aspects of Sentence Comprehension: Syntactic Complexity, Reversibility, and Reanalysis
Broca's area is preferentially activated by reversible sentences with complex syntax, but various linguistic factors may be responsible for this finding, including syntactic movement, working-memory demands, and post hoc reanalysis. To distinguish between these, we tested the interaction of syntactic complexity and semantic reversibility in a functional magnetic resonance imaging study of sente...
